Venus Vs. Mars: Ludacris’ Best Female Collaborations

Music

The truth is this: We weren’t so surprised when Shawnna abruptly peaced out from Ludacris’ Disturbing The Peace sect while recording the bi-gendered Battle Of The Sexes album. Not that she’s a flake; it’s just that Luda’s animated charm has been known to scorch a collaborator or three. And rap is a man’s sport after all, isn’t it?

Slow down, bub. Luda’s had lots of memorable xx-xy collaborations, but the testosterone’s not always the saving grace. As BOTS drops today—with four appearances from Shawnna, and six supplementary female features (Nicki Minaj, FTW)—VIBE takes a look back at his best verbal intercourse sessions to see who really comes out on top. —Tracy Garraud
